Reunion [garri]

I don't smile when she walks up, but out of poiteness, I just reply, "Hello Misha", in a dull, emotionless tone.

I try to shake my head, but it's all catching up to me now, all the sorrow and the tears. I start to cry and my knees nearly buckle under me, I end up supporting myself on Misha's shoulder, but can't thank her past the tears

"I'm sorry", I choke past the now subsiding tears, "I'm such a whimp". It takes a minute or two,but eventually I calm myself.

"It all started with Logan..." I say, and then proceed to list the terrible series of events; Logan's rejection, my meeting Elias and later Sega, the wolf attack, Sega nearly dying, him loving her...

I nod, "Good for you" I say bitterly, "I hope for his sake tht I don't have to see him again..." I'll probably end up slappin him again...

I smile slightly, "I hope so", I say quietly, "I can't go through something like that again..."

"Yeah", I say, "It's just that following my heart hasn't worked well in the past", I think back to those two boys...no, it hadn't worked well at all...
